My first experience with Coastal Artillery

Great Post

I was slammed by some coastal arty this evening off the coast of Jawa.
Those folks are rather good marksmen - considering they are primarily
droid peddlers

Well, you gotta remember they did after all manage to take out R2.

By the way, anyone know if US bases have coastal guns installed in them? It would be interesting to see a battle ensue between Japanese surface vessels attempting to seize an American port.

Yep they do. They also have AA. It shows up on your map.

We need some Yamato action at Pearl Harbour then.

I found the "Swarm of Bee's" action of the the Jap planes a bit unrealistic too. I recommend ParaB's Tweeked Airstrike Mod. Planes will show up less frequently but when they do, watch out! No more student pilots. They still miss, but are ALOT more effective. Whenever I even detect aircraft I dive like mad. Had a scary moment on a last patrol where a Seaplane that was dispatched to the area of my hunting dropped out of the clouds. I could have stayed and slugged it out, but I thought of my crew first, so I scrambled under as fast as I could. Makes the game more tense and real feeling.
